Graphical abstract: Display Omitted Highlights: ► Q × f of Nd{sub 1–x}Sm{sub x}(Mg{sub 0.5}Ti{sub 0.5})O{sub 3} are correlated with B-site cation ordering (LRO). ► Correlation between LRO and Γ of A{sub 1g}-like mode in Raman spectrum is observed. ► Reason for asymmetry in A{sub 1g}-like Raman mode in these materials is revealed. ► Briet–Wigner–Fano resonance is confirmed with temperature variation in Raman spectra. -- Abstract: Nd{sub 1−x}Sm{sub x}(Mg{sub 0.5}Ti{sub 0.5})O{sub 3} (x = 0.0–1.0) samples were prepared by solid-state reaction method. Rietveld refinement of X-ray diffraction data was done using P2{sub 1}/n space group with monoclinic symmetry, which supports 1:1 B-site cation ordering. Long range ordering (LRO) parameter decreased up to x = 0.5 and then found to increase with further increase in Sm concentration. The A{sub 1g}-like mode in Raman spectra was observed to possess Briet–Wigner–Fano line shape. The variation in obtained line width of the A{sub 1g}-like mode supported LRO. Microwave dielectric characteristics such as dielectric constant (ε{sub r}), quality factor (Q) and temperature coefficient of resonant frequency (τ{sub f}) were measured in the range of 7–9 GHz. ε{sub r} decreased from 26.5 to 24.9 and τ{sub f} become less negative from −58 ppm/°C to −36 ppm/°C with increase in Sm concentration. Q × f decreased from 47,500 GHz (for x = 0) to 39,800 GHz (for x = 0.5) and then increased to 44,600 GHz (for x = 1).
